Chapter 240: Washing the Golden Crow's Essence Blood, the Wu Clan Reveals Its Trump Card!

In the midst of deduction.

Even though Nüwa could not know the specific outcome of this battle.

But in her heart, a vague sense of unease arose.

Needless to say, she also knew where that unease came from.

Fuxi!

Not bad!

In this war, what Nüwa most cared about was naturally her elder brother, Fuxi.

Could it be... that her brother will ultimately fall in this Great Calamity?

Such a speculation made Nüwa's complexion change.

"No!"

"No matter what, I must ensure my elder brother's safety."

Nüwa could hardly suppress the turmoil in her heart, and couldn't help muttering to herself.

The Wu-Yao Great Calamity is the great trend of the Heavenly Dao, which cannot be changed.

Even a Saint is equally powerless.

Therefore, for a moment, Nüwa fell into deep thought, as if contemplating how to protect Fuxi.

Tai Su Heaven restored its ancient tranquility and harmony.

Only the intermittent pressure of a Saint, fluctuating, revealed the slight ripples in Nüwa's heart.

On the other side!

Chen Ku had already returned to the Western Heaven and Earth.

As soon as he appeared, Jieyin and Zhunti descended together.

"Disciple, you have finally returned."

Jieyin immediately opened his mouth, sizing up Chen Ku from head to toe.

His eyes were also full of worry.

Nothing else!

The Wu-Yao war erupted completely, this was an unprecedented great terror.

Even though Chen Ku's own strength was formidable, Jieyin couldn't help worrying, fearing that his disciple might suffer some harm.

But after a moment, Jieyin finally let out a long breath.

Chen Ku not only suffered no injury at all, but was hardly stained by the karma of the Great Calamity.

This put Jieyin's mind at ease.

After all, from beginning to end, Chen Ku merely acted to suppress the Ten Golden Crows.

The lethal strike was carried out by the Wu Clan's Great Witch Houyi.

The karma involved naturally would not fall on Chen Ku.

Beside him, Zhunti also looked solemnly toward the direction of the Wu-Yao war.

"The Great Calamity... finally broke out!"

His tone carried a hint of surprise and regret.

Hearing this, Chen Ku nodded.

"What is meant to come will eventually come."

"All of this is unavoidable."

Such a response left both Jieyin and Zhunti stunned.

Immediately, they looked at Chen Ku with a rather strange gaze.

This kid...... is just too calm.

It seemed as if he had anticipated everything that happened today.

However, how could that be possible?

One must know that the heavenly secrets are in chaos; even before this, Jieyin and Zhunti had not fully grasped the course of worldly affairs.

Could Chen Ku possibly be clairvoyant?!

Exchanging a glance, Jieyin and Zhunti each saw the other's inner turmoil.

What a fellow!

This disciple (junior disciple) of ours is truly becoming more and more inscrutable.

Seeing Chen Ku say no more, the two also did not continue to press.

Changing the subject, Zhunti then sighed:

"The Wu and Yao clans are undoubtedly the hegemons of the present age."

"Today, the two sides are engaged in a life-and-death battle."

"When the great war ends, perhaps it will be the day of extinction for one side."

Obviously, Zhunti's thought is no different from that of all beings in the world.

They all believe that this battle already has no room for reconciliation.

Only the complete destruction of one side can bring it to an end.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ku's expression shifted.

He involuntarily gazed deeply toward the direction beyond Chaos.

Will one side really be destroyed......

Regarding this, Chen Ku harbored some doubt in his heart.

But soon after, he no longer thought further.

"Hehe, the Witch-Demon War is no longer our concern."

"We should quickly restore the West."

Saying this, Chen Ku waved his hand.

In an instant, the large amount of Xuanhuang Earth Vein Ginseng previously obtained from Di Jun's hand directly appeared.

"Please, Master and Uncle-Master, take action and plant these Xuanhuang Earth Vein Ginseng in the Western Heaven and Earth."

Chen Ku continued speaking.

Seeing this, Jieyin and Zhunti also showed smiles and nodded.

"Good!"

"Continuing to improve the Western Heaven and Earth is, for them, the most important matter."

The two wasted no words and immediately acted.

"Boom—rumble—rumble!"

The saints' mighty power swept out, carrying stalk after stalk of Xuanhuang Earth Vein Ginseng, which immediately fell into every direction of the Western Heaven and Earth.

Soon after, all the Xuanhuang Earth Vein Ginseng were planted, each stalk shining brightly and emitting spiritual light, wonderfully indescribable.

Moreover, Jieyin and Zhunti continued to infuse the vast saintly law order.

In the dark, the aura of the Xuanhuang Earth Vein Ginseng also became richer and deeper, spreading outward in all directions!

"Earth veins!"

One after another, earth veins sprang into being at visible speed, crisscrossing and outlining beneath the Western Earth.

This scene made Jieyin and Zhunti even more delighted.

"Haha, now the speed at which I reforge the earth veins of the West has increased."

"As long as we continue developing, one day we will surely surpass the Eastern Heaven and Earth—there is no doubt about it."

Jieyin laughed heartily, unable to hide his joy and excitement.

Know this: previously, Jieyin and Zhunti felt resentful because more beings had gone to Kunlun Mountain to listen to the Dao.

Now they see greater hope, believing that the West will surpass the East—it's only a matter of time.

Jieyin and Zhunti as well were greatly bolstered in confidence.

Chen Ku also showed a smile.

He said nothing more, but flicked his finger.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In an instant, two drops of mighty essence blood shot out.

In the blink of an eye, they flew out and fell into the Eight Treasures Merit Pool atop Mount Sumeru.

"Let the power of merit cleanse these two drops of essence blood."

"In the future, we can plot something!"

Without a doubt, those two drops of essence blood are naturally the Golden Crow's natal essence blood that Di Jun and Taiyi previously handed over.

Chen Ku's smile was deep and unfathomable.

Jieyin and Zhunti watched this scene, saying nothing more and not asking Chen Ku what use these two drops of natal essence blood had.

As for Chen Ku, Jieyin and Zhunti already had unwavering trust in him.

They only knew that, no matter what, Chen Ku would never do anything detrimental to the Western Buddhist Sect, or even to the Western Heaven and Earth.

"That is enough!"

And just as Chen Ku finished doing all this.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, far away a brilliant treasure light burst forth, piercing the high heavens, dazzling and blinding.

Such a phenomenon was like a primer.

Immediately after, several beams of treasure light rose up, shining together and illuminating the endless heavens in a scene of sparkling brilliance.

"Haha, the earth veins are spreading!"

"Moreover, many spiritual treasures have finally been successfully born and have truly appeared in the world."

Jieyin's smile deepened as he repeatedly praised.

"Good!"

Those beams of treasure light bursting forth are exactly the fluctuations of spiritual treasures being born.

As more earth veins are born and spread, the Western territory expands.

Some spiritual treasures that had never before been successfully born also appeared.

Without a doubt, this is a great boon for the Western Heaven and Earth.

As far as the eye could see, the disciples of the Western Buddhist Sect all responded, rushing to the places where those spiritual treasures were born, eager to reap the opportunities.

As for this, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Chen Ku merely smiled and watched, taking no action.

Nowadays, ordinary innate spiritual treasures are of little use to Chen Ku, let alone the two saints Jieyin and Zhunti.

Therefore, those spiritual treasures were left to Dizang, Mile, Dashizhi and other disciples, making better use of them.

This scene truly lives up to being flourishing and prosperous.

This is also what Jieyin and Zhunti have awaited for countless ages.

Thus, the two of them now wear faces of satisfaction, from time to time letting out sighs of emotion.

For them, the West being this way can indeed be called "reward after hardship".

After a moment, Jieyin withdrew his gaze.

Looking at Chen Ku, he turned solemn, as if he had thought of something.

"Disciple, I see you have been stationed at the late Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal stage for quite a while."

"If the three-life Buddha body unites, is there hope?!"

"If you need me to do anything, or seek any cultivation resources, just tell me."

"No matter the cost, I will find it for you."

Jieyin spoke.

The restoration of the Western heaven and earth is certainly a good thing.

But as Jieyin is the master, he has not forgotten to monitor his disciple's cultivation.

Jieyin clearly knows that Chen Ku possesses extraordinary talent, an exceptional foundation, and a cultivation speed far beyond that of ordinary beings.

But since Chen Ku entered the late Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal stage, he has been unable to break through further.

This also makes Jieyin somewhat anxious for him.

As his words fell, Zhunti beside him also nodded repeatedly.

They know well how arduous the Mixed Yuan Dao that Chen Ku cultivates is.

Compared to the breakthrough of an ordinary quasi-sage, its difficulty is over a hundred times greater.

Therefore, as long as he can break through, the two sages will spare no expense, personally act, and also seek sufficient cultivation resources for him.

Seeing Jieyin and Zhunti like this, Chen Ku felt a warm current surge in his heart.

However, he shook his head.

"Hehe, Master, Uncle, rest assured."

"Now, I am only a hair's breadth away from the peak of the Mixed Yuan realm."

"Just await that fated opportunity to descend, and I can break through in one fell swoop."

After a pause in his words, he continued:

"As for cultivation resources... they are not needed."

"Ordinary cultivation resources have little effect on me."

Chen Ku's response left Jieyin and Zhunti startled, then overjoyed.

"A hair's breadth apart?!"

Since Chen Ku said that, he must indeed have sufficient confidence.

Moreover, with that twenty-fourth-grade Chaos Azure Lotus, Chen Ku's cultivation will be even more effective, achieving success naturally.

"Haha, I, the master, overthought it."

"If that's the case, then you, kid, go cultivate on your own."

Jieyin laughed heartily and said thus.

Having a disciple like Chen Ku truly makes them worry-free.

Even spreading the Dharma and teaching is unnecessary.

He himself will continually improve, becoming supreme over heaven and earth.

After leaving such a sentence, Jieyin and Zhunti said no more.

They immediately turned and departed, returning to the Great Thunder Sound Temple to continue contemplating the Great Dao.

Chen Ku, however, remained where he was.

He gazed from afar at the scene of the Wu-Demon battle, his expression solemn and grave.

"This battle... seems somewhat not simple."

"What changes might there be......"

Chen Ku murmured to himself, his heart giving rise to a profound and mysterious feeling that is hard to put into words.

Meanwhile, on the battlefield.

The Wu and Demon races have harbored grudges for a long time.

Moreover, the nine great Golden Crows have already died.

Thus, as soon as they engage, they show no reservation.

On the Demon side, various great divine powers sweep forth, obscuring the sky and sun, stirring up a tremendous terror.

On the Wu side, they are extraordinarily violent, their fists can split the heavens, their feet can shatter the earth.

Between each punch and palm lies the most ferocious surging of power, causing all beings to change color.

Between heaven and heaven, endless blood rains burst forth, severed limbs and broken arms fly sideways.

As far as the eye can see, a bloody red expanse, truly shocking and terrifying.

However, upon careful observation, one can find that the Wu and Demon races are also fairly evenly matched.

After all, both sides possess astonishing foundations; wanting to completely crush the opponent is far from simple.

At the center of the battlefield.

The twelve ancestral Wu joined forces, directly confronting Di Jun Taiyi, as well as Kunpeng, Fuxi, and the ten great Demon Sages, etc.

Zhurong's body was engulfed in rising flames, burning and collapsing the high heavens.

The fire of law condensed, not yielding even to Di Jun Taiyi's solar true fire.

At a certain moment, he let out a fierce low shout.

"Hmph, there's no need to give these demon beasts any chance to catch their breath."

"Let us directly employ that method."

Zhurong's words clearly fell into the ears of the other ancestral Wu such as Emperor Jiang and Chu Jiuyin.

Hearing this, several people's faces changed dramatically.

They knew that the "means" spoken of by Zhurong referred precisely to their Twelve Ancestral Witches' greatest trump card.

After a moment's contemplation, Di Jiang was the first to respond.

"Good!"

"This battle is already a fight to the death; there's no need to delay."

"Brothers, follow me to set up the formation!"

Exactly!

What Zhurong spoke of is naturally the All-Heaven Divine Slaughter Grand Formation devised by the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

As the words fell, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, in perfect unison, leapt up and took their places above the high heavens.

Then, the aura between heaven and earth suddenly changed dramatically.
